A Grande (16 fl oz) Starbucks Earl Grey Tea has 0 calories, 0 g sugar and about 40 mg of caffeine. Every size from Short to Venti lists 0 calories, because it is brewed tea and hot water. Milk, honey, syrup or a latte version are where calories come in.
What's in an Earl Grey Tea
Starbucks describes it as a strong black tea base with the essence of bergamot, a citrus fruit with lemon and floral lavender notes. Starbucks brews it from tea bags in hot water: 1 bag in a Short or Tall and 2 in a Grande or Venti, per Starbucks recipe data. Starbucks lists 40 mg caffeine at every size.
Milk and customization swaps
Swaps are shown as the direction of change against the standard recipe. Starbucks' product pages don't publish per-drink numbers for each swap, so check the Starbucks app or our calculator for an estimate of your exact order.
| Swap | Effect on calories | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Add a splash of milk | Adds a few calories | Not part of the standard drink |
| Add honey or Classic syrup | Adds calories and sugar | Each pump adds sugar (estimate below) |
| Order a tea latte | Adds calories | Steamed milk and syrup are added |
Syrup pumps and calories
Earl Grey Tea has no syrup by default. Starbucks doesn't list nutrition per pump on its product pages. The figure most sites quote is about 20 calories and 5 g of sugar for one pump of a standard syrup such as Classic or Vanilla. Treat that as an estimate (unverified), not a Starbucks number. Sugar-free vanilla syrup adds almost no calories. For pump counts across the menu, see our Starbucks syrup calories per pump guide.
Lower-calorie ways to order
- Order it as it comes: 0 calories.
- Use a splash of milk rather than a latte.
- Skip syrup or ask for 1 pump.
- See more light options in our Starbucks drinks under 100 calories guide.
